    -- Brief aside: **What is LSP?**
    --
    -- LSP is an initialism you've probably heard, but might not understand what it is.
    --
    -- LSP stands for Language Server Protocol. It's a protocol that helps editors
    -- and language tooling communicate in a standardized fashion.
    --
    -- In general, you have a "server" which is some tool built to understand a particular
    -- language (such as `gopls`, `lua_ls`, `rust_analyzer`, etc.). These Language Servers
    -- (sometimes called LSP servers, but that's kind of like ATM Machine) are standalone
    -- processes that communicate with some "client" - in this case, Neovim!
    --
    -- LSP provides Neovim with features like:
    --  - Go to definition
    --  - Find references
    --  - Autocompletion
    --  - Symbol Search
    --  - and more!
    --
    -- Thus, Language Servers are external tools that must be installed separately from
    -- Neovim. This is where `mason` and related plugins come into play.
    --
    -- If you're wondering about lsp vs treesitter, you can check out the wonderfully
    -- and elegantly composed help section, `:help lsp-vs-treesitter`

    --  This function gets run when an LSP attaches to a particular buffer.
    --    That is to say, every time a new file is opened that is associated with
    --    an lsp (for example, opening `main.rs` is associated with `rust_analyzer`) this
    --    function will be executed to configure the current buffer
